    It starts then dies, then goes ok.... think it's a bit rich all round too.
    Are you still running the Evo Chip, I think that causes rich running and cold start problems?

    Disconnect the battery and leave the car alone for a little while

    ...some don't.

    Only that's it is known for cold starting issues and overfuelling too iirc. If you have the original chip I'd swap them and see if there's any difference.

    I did have it... god knows where it is now!

    Also it's had the battery disconnected several times, but I've been told P8 can be reset in another way.
    Not sure if the ECU's adaptive learning would be reset by simply removing the power?

    Still got them tucked away. Too small for the brakes I've got on it now anyway.

    The Q4's exhaust is looking a lot healthier and simpler now that 'Simon's Custom Exhausts' has seen to it.
    Sure it sounds better as well.... tomorrow will tell!
